A/N: So, We'll check in on Obi-Wan, Yoda, and Darth Sidious right here, and check in on Anakin, Kenai, and Koda on their trip towards the Salmon Run. It'll be a race to see who gets to Anakin first for the Jedi and Sith. Enjoy!
Obi-Wan, Yoda, and Bail Organa discussed amongst themselves about where Padme and Anakin's children would be taken since they had to be kept a secret from the new empire Sidious had created.
"I will take the girl, my wife and I always discussed about adopting a daughter, she will be loved with us" Bail had said.
"What about they boy?" Obi-Wan piped up.
"To Tatooine, to his family, he will be sent" Yoda said.
"To Earth, Obi-Wan and I will go. Bring Anakin back, we shall. Find Skywalker before the Sith find him, we must" Obi-Wan nodded. He knew he would be useful to the search and rescue since he was the only one who knew what Anakin looked like as a bear.
Meanwhile on a star destroyer, Darth Sidious had been receiving a transmission from Utapau.
"Ah, General Grievous, you're alive" the robed Sith said to the battle scarred cyborg on the hologram projector. Indeed, Grievous had survived the multiple blaster shots from Obi-Wan Kenobi.
"I am, my lord. What is your bidding?" he asked.
"On Mustafar, I looked at the security footage from the cameras that my new apprentice Darth Vader had been turned into a bear by some sort of northern lights"
"Impossible, there are no northern lights on a volcanic rock such as Mustafar"
"Silence. He was then taken somewhere by these lights, and I think I know where .You will set a course for Earth and track down Darth Vader before the Jedi do"
"Yes, my master" the hologram of Grievous disappeared before him, and Sidious showed a sinister smile.
Back on Earth, Anakin was trying his best to stay asleep but Koda was jumping on him, up and down.
"Wake up, Anakin. We gotta get going to the Salmon Run today!" Anakin scoffed a bit at this cub's childishness. But he got up and spoke.
"Alright, fine, you woke me up" Anakin said as he got up from the position from which he slept in. Koda did the same with Kenai and they all left towards their destination.
After an hour, they walked through a meadow and Anakin was in front of the other two bears.
"Hey, Kenai" Koda piped up.
"Yeah, Koda?" his brother replied.
"Let's sing!"
"Great idea. Anakin, why don't you join us?" Kenai asked the bear in front of them.
"I don't sing, like, at all" he said while he looked forward.
"Your loss. Koda, you start" Kenai said.
"Tell everybody I'm on my way! New friends and new places to see" Anakin heard Koda sing and he covered his hears with his paws.
"Koda, shut up" Anakin growled lowly.
"With blue skies ahead, yes I'm on my way!" Kenai joined in on his little brother's singing.
"Kenai, I mean it, the both of you stop" Anakin growled again, but they didn't listen and continued singing.
"And there's no where else that I'd rather be" the two brothers sang together. Anakin groaned and just kept on walking.
Tell everybody I'm on my way! And I'm loving every step I take! With the sun beating down, yes I'm on my way! And I can't keep this smile off my face!
They kept walking forward and forward until they found a berry bush. Anakin ate nicely and politely while Koda was covered in a mess of berry juice, Kenai laughed at his brother's messy fur.
Because there's nothing like seeing each other again, no matter what the distance between! And the stories that we tell will make you smile! Oh, it really lifts my heart!
The three of them stopped again so Koda could tell his friends a story. Kenai and the other animals laughed at his hilarious story. Anakin then nudged Koda.
"Come on, Koda, we've gotta go" Anakin said. Koda whined and got picked up by Kenai and they all continued to walk.
So tell 'em all I'm on my way! New friends and new places to see! And to sleep under the stars and could ask for more! With the moon keeping watch over me!
Anakin was trying to sleep, but then he felt something move underneath his forearm. He looked to see it was Koda.
"Anakin, I had a bad dream. Can I sleep with you for the night" Anakin couldn't say no to the look Koda gave him. He nodded and Koda nuzzled himself into Anakin's fur.
Not the snow, not the rain can change my mind! The sun will come out! Wait and see! And the feeling of the wind in your face and lift your heart! Oh, there's no where I would rather be!
The next day, Koda found a cliff, and it was breezy. Koda and Kenai leaned their bodies against the wind.
"Come on, Anakin, it's fun!" Kenai called out to him. Anakin got up on his hind paws and leaned his body against the wind. Anakin found that this was fun and he laughed along with the other two bears. The wind stopped and they fell off the cliff into a pile of mud. They all laughed and shook themselves off. They walked on laughing until they ran into two familiar faces. Two moose.
"Hey bears, and other bear" the first moose said.
"Oh, I didn't know you had two brothers" the second one said.
"Yeah, Anakin, this is Rutt and Tuke" Koda introduced Anakin to the moose.
"We've got a problem. There's this weird looking hunter after us! He's got an unusually skinny body and weird looking mask, he even had four arms!" Rutt said.
"Grievous" Anakin growled.
"You know him?" Kenai asked,
"We're old friends" Anakin said sarcastically. Kenai looked at everyone and spoke with a mischievous grin.
"I've got an idea"
They all were now riding on Wooly Mammoths and Anakin was smiling at all the fun he was having.
Tell everybody I'm on my way! And I just can't wait to be there! With blue skies ahead, yes I'm on my way! With nothing but good times to share! So tell everybody I'm on my way! And I just can't wait to be home! With the sun beating down, yes I'm on my way! With nothing but good times to show! I'm on my way!
"Yes, I'm on my way!" Anakin, Kenai, and Koda all sang together as one voice.
A/N: Well there you have it, the race to Anakin has begun and Anakin is starting to have fun for the first time in forever. Please review, thanks.
